Test drive of Guangzhou Automobile Aian AION Y, the space does not lose MPV, and the battery life is 600km.

Lead: At last year's Guangzhou Auto Show, GAC Aian officially became an independent brand, and brought a brand-new model AION Y, which attracted many people to stop by virtue of its personalized design and jumping body color matching. 202 1 March-April pre-sale and listing one after another. As a non-owner, I also opened this brand-new AION Y at the end of April.

The era of bold design and making cars by appearance is coming to an end.

If you have ever judged the spatial performance and use of a car by its body size, then I can say responsibly that this is a view that will be eliminated by the times. With the continuous renewal of new energy products, it has also had a very obvious impact on the design of automobile products. The small size of the three-in-one motor and the battery module that can be placed under the chassis will replace the engine and fuel tank that once occupied a large number of positions in the fuel vehicle, and the simpler power structure will leave enough margin for the design of the body space.

GAC AION Y is the product of the second generation flat platform of GAC AION. If you have paid attention to the early AION S and other products, you will find that in the first generation of models, the size of the front part has been compressed, but in this AION Y, the size of the front part has been reduced more boldly. The length of the vehicle is only 44 10mm, but the wheelbase size has reached 2750 mm According to the previous fuel product positioning, this should be a compact SUV product, but the actual space performance is not the case.

Me: "Do you think this car looks like a K car?"

Teacher Chen, a colleague from Japan, immediately said, "This car can't get up. This head is too big."

Me: "That's the fattening K car, haha".

Teacher Chen: "... put on weight like you? "

…

The official name given in the design is "City of the Sky", and the * * * consists of a closed grille, a unique sky blue new color scheme and the design of the daytime running light of the "Angel Wing" on the front of the car. Although the closed grille design is chosen, the rich layering of the front part is not abrupt through the comparison of three colors. At the same time, the "G" logo on the front of the car has also been replaced with a new design, adding a blue stroke design.

New design elements have also been enabled in the rear part, such as the taillight design named "Star Track". The concise breakpoint design also has good recognition after lighting, and the part of logo has also been changed to the letter tail of "AION".

The original new car will be equipped with this very recognizable rim design, which looks like a five-pointed star and is decorated with orange elements, and the recognition is also excellent. If you can't adapt to this design, you can also choose the traditional five-frame rim, and the tire size of 19 inch is also very suitable for the positioning needs of urban vehicles.

In terms of spatial performance, the spatial performance of AION Y can be said to be completely inconsistent with the performance of previous compact SUV products. The door opening angle of nearly 90 degrees is not only convenient for getting on and off, but also spacious enough for the legs and head space in the car. I am a little fat man with a height of 180cm. After getting on the bus, there is still 280mm (about three punches) from the front seat. The wide-headed panoramic skylight and the groove design on the roof once again ensure the feeling of sitting space.

After the front seat is laid down, the headrest can be pulled out and seamlessly connected with the rear seat to form a1.8m "double queen room" equipped with curtains and projection equipment, which is a mobile car cinema.

On the whole, AION Y's modeling design is unique and full of personality, which not only has the design characteristics of new energy products, but also highlights youth and dynamics through the design of colors and details. Whether you like it or not depends on your own aesthetic preferences, but it is worth mentioning that such a body proportion design really subverts the impression given by traditional SUV products. It seems that the era of judging a car only by its appearance is coming to an end. Today, with new energy widely entering the market, there will be more and more products like AION Y.

In-depth cooperation, ADIGO 4.0 system is online.

The new car not only brings new ideas in the space design of the whole vehicle, but also joins GAC's brand-new ADiGO 4.0 intelligent driving interconnection ecosystem, which also brings some changes in the driving assistance function and the intelligent experience of the vehicle.

The color matching and appearance of the car also chose a more jumping color matching. In addition to the interior color scheme, this almond cake has two deeper interior color schemes. The car also provides "the exclusive fragrance of the national wind in the twenty-four solar terms", and the media part basically covers the functions of the whole car with 10.25 inch full LCD instrument and 14.6 inch LCD central control panel. Physical keys as few as possible is also a major feature of new energy products. Compared with the design of physical buttons, it advocates intelligence and technology in new energy products, and all operations are completed through LCD screen and voice.

Under the new Zhilian system, the whole vehicle system has deep cooperation with "ByteDance". In the car, you can not only watch volcano videos, but also brush Tik Tok and listen to today's headlines. With the help of the 5G network and the camera configuration inside and outside the car, you can also shoot the vibrato video at any time and push it in real time. At the same time, there are more applications in the car that can support downloading, such as singing karaoke songs in the car. At the same time, the intelligent cockpit mode adds options such as movie mode, rest mode, SPA mode, rainstorm mode and game mode, which makes the car more functional and playable.

City Road Test Drive, Enriching Intelligent Scenes

The test drive schedule is tight. Only half a day, the test drive experience can only be carried out around the urban roads. Fortunately, Zhengzhou's urban road construction is relatively perfect, so you can find a fast road with less traffic nearby for test drive experience.

At present, AION Y model * * * has launched an entry product with a battery life of 4 10km, a main product with a battery life of 500km and a top model with a battery life of 600km for this test drive. In the power part, the entry model is equipped with a motor with a maximum power of 70kW, and other configurations are equipped with a permanent magnet synchronous motor with a maximum power of 135kW, with a peak torque of 225n·m and a power consumption level of 13.8kWh per 100 kilometers. The acceleration time of 0-50km/h is 4. 1 s, which mainly meets the urban road demand. Guangzhou Automobile Aian's "magazine battery" was also installed on the AION Y model for the first time. The lithium iron phosphate battery is composed of a smaller battery control module, which shows excellent stability in the acupuncture experiment, and there is no open flame and more serious thermal runaway.

In the conventional manual driving part, the maturity of AION Y is expected. The stroke control of the switch pedal and the brake pedal is relatively linear, and there will be no sudden braking or starting. It is also easier for drivers who are used to fuel driving. The initial feedback of the brake pedal is clear, and the energy recovery intervention is fast, which needs to be adapted. The direction is clear enough, the steering wheel damping feedback is light, and girls are easy to get started. It takes about 1 turn to complete the U-turn with one hand, more than 3/4 turns.

In this top-of-the-line AION Y, 1 independent cameras, 12 ultrasonic radars and 4 high-definition panoramic cameras are provided as hardware support, thus realizing the automatic driving assistance functions of ADiGO 2.0, including lane departure warning, lane keeping, active braking assistance system and ACC adaptive cruise function. In addition, there are intelligent driving state monitoring, traffic congestion assistance, and one-button remote parking of mobile phones.

When driving, press the touch button on the left side of the steering wheel in turn to start the whole driver assistance system. Although the current hardware configuration can not achieve a higher level of high-precision map automatic driving assistance function for the time being, when driving on urban roads with clear road markings, most urban road conditions can be dealt with by activating all driving assistance functions.

The two cameras in the car have independent functional designs. The independent camera in front of the steering wheel is mainly used to monitor the driver's state, judge the fatigue degree and remind the driver not to drive fatigue in time. The camera above the rearview mirror is used to capture the status of the occupants in the car. For example, if someone lights a cigarette in the car, it will automatically open one side window for ventilation, and at the same time, it can shoot the Tik Tok content in the car and send it directly.

Achuan flat car

After a short day's test drive and understanding, AION Y's personalization and intelligence are first of all worthy of recognition. As a product under the special electric platform of GAC, the wheelbase of 2750mm and the door opening angle close to 90 degrees are also outstanding highlights in space performance. From the performance of the whole vehicle, AION Y is a model that meets the future new energy products. In the product, the difference of power system is played down, and the intelligent and humanized interactive experience and diversified space applications are highlighted. However, when considering intelligence and richer interactive experience, the details of users also need to be optimized. For example, it may be better to let users take the initiative of the camera.
